493 Piney Ridge Rd, Forest City, NC, 28043- Assisted living
- Memory care
Warm staff, good care, caveats
I toured several places and chose this one for my mom - the staff are warm, attentive and knowledgeable (excellent memory-care training), the place is clean, safe and well-maintained, and the apartment-style rooms, dining and rehab amenities feel homey. There are lots of activities, a lovely garden and good rehab; we saw real improvements in mobility and cognition. Downsides: administration/billing and affordability have been problematic for some, and there have been isolated care/communication lapses and requests for more varied activities. Overall I feel my mom is in good hands and would recommend it with those caveats.

About Brookdale Forest City
About Brookdale
We are all aging; some of us never stop living. So when the time comes to determine how you or your loved one will spend their later years in life, you'll have questions… Will I be heard? Will I be forgotten? How can I stay active? Will I be able to still grow as a person? Will my children still look up to me? Or down at me? How can I just be her daughter again? How can I continue to contribute to something meaningful? What do I do now? What do we do next? What do I do…to keep on living my life? Brookdale's senior living solutions will help answer those questions for those who may be in need of an assisted living facility or some other level of senior living care.
